Description
The war memorial cross outside All Saints' Church in Streetly is made of Portland stone and is located in the churchyard to the west of the church. It features a figure of Christ crucified on a large wheel-head cross, which rises from a pedestal with a shallow two-stepped base. This pedestal stands on two steps and a concrete base.
On the front face of the cross shaft, below the crucifixion, there is an inscription that reads "1939 - 1945" along with the names of 15 individuals. Below this, a relief-carved wreath on the pedestal encloses the dates "1939 – 1945," and a small stone plaque at the base of the pedestal reads "GREATER LOVE/ HATH NO MAN THAN THIS." At the rear of the pedestal, a similar wreath encloses the dates "1914 – 1918," listing the names of 26 local servicemen who died in the First World War.
